Silver Horns was a tick monster who served as the main antagonist of the second part of the two-part episode "The Power Transfer.”

History

After the Power Rangers retrieve the Sword of Light, Serpentera travels too slowly to Earth for Lord Zedd’s liking. As such, Zedd creates Silver Horns out of thin air to attack the Earth. Silver Horns was a very laidback and flamboyant monster with a thick Texan accent and stereotypical southern American vocabulary. Powers wise, Silver Horns attacks with beams from his horns and eyes, as well as fire.  

Silver Horns attacks the Park and encounters the new team of Power Rangers (with Rocky DeSantos, Adam Park, and Aisha Campbell having joined the team whilst the others attend a Peace Conference in Switzerland). The Power Rangers were ready to destroy him but he blasted them down with a laser blast as a team and then individually before creating Putties to finish them off.

After they are defeated, Zedd enlarges Silver Horns who Rocky has to battle alone in the Red Dragon Thunderzord since the others have to prepare for the eventuality of Serpentera’s arrival. Although the very first blow against Silver Horns immediately after its transformation, they grapple before the Red Dragon throws him off and he delivers a beatdown with his claws. and backhands the Red Dragon away for several miles. The Red Dragon tries to use its staff but Silver Horns shrugs off multiple slashes and retaliates. The Red Dragon’s spinning staff kick stuns Silver Horn and allows the the Red Dragon to perform its finisher.

This fails to scratch the monster which forces Tommy to aid Rocky with the White Tigerzord in Warrior Mode. Enraged, Silver Horns smashes a mountain to bombard them with rocks but they barely make the Zords stumble so he blasts them with lightning and then fire. The Zords are unaffected, so Tommy summons Tor and calls upon the other Power Rangers to bring the monster down.

The other Rangers summon the four remaining Thunderzords and form the Thunder Ultrazord to defeat Silver Horns.

The Red Dragon flies it into the air with its staff and then stops spinning it which point the Thunder Ultrazord plummets out of the sky, crushing Silver Horns to death as it lands right on top of him.

Personality

Silver Horns had a very thick Texan accent, speaking very much like a cowboy.
